The best thing you can do for your posture is to be happy. Happy people tend to be buoyant<\/a> aka “capable of floating”. Buoyant means full of air and full of life. Upward in orientation. Depressed people tend to collapse. They’re pulled down. <\/p>\n

When you float through life, you’re much more likely to be happy than when you are focusing, tensing, compressing and pulling down.<\/p>\n

Another way to have great posture is to be in the present moment. When you think about the past or the future, you’ll stop noticing what you’re doing in the present, and you will most likely tense and pull down on yourself. <\/p>\n

One way to be in the present is to notice everything you can around you. See what’s to your left and to your right and everything in between.<\/p>\n

Another way to be present is to listen for every distinctive sound. These choices tend to awaken your kinaesthesia and you’ll find yourself moving up and letting go of needless compression. <\/p>\n
